It has also influenced phytoceramide sales as a result of the imposition of lockdowns and a decline in demand from the beauty industry, particularly from personal care and cosmetic product manufacturers who are the primary consumers phytoceramides.

This was because mainstream organizations moved toward the work from home culture, and thereby, the beauty industry took a hit as people reduced their expenditure on cosmetic products during lockdowns.

  • The phytoceramides business is currently valued at US$ 234 Mn, and is anticipated to rise at 5.3% CAGR over the forecast period.
  • Even though offline sales channels were restricted, e-Commerce and other direct sales channels opened up newer avenues of revenue generation for manufacturers.

Country-wise Analysis

Why is the U.S. a Prominent Market for Phytoceramides?

The U.S. has remained one of the prominent consumers of cosmetic products and dietary supplements. Multiple manufacturers in the country are constantly investing in the research & development of newer cosmetics & dietary products that incorporate newer constituents from time to time. This has, in turn, aided in raising the demand for phytoceramides, and the market is anticipated to progress at a CAGR of 4.3% during 2021-31.

The U.S. holds around 20% share of the US$ 532 Bn global beauty industry, as of 2020. This is because U.S. women spend an average of US$ 1,000 to US$ 3,000 per year on cosmetic products, especially on those offering anti-ageing benefits.

Moreover, high number of cosmetic manufacturing and pharmaceutical companies located in the United States has resulted in rapid growth in recent years. In addition, the United States has been a key donor to research spending, and various pharmaceutical corporations who are on the lookout for new constituents and chemicals. 

Owing to this, the U.S. is poised to remain a key contributor to the demand for phytoceramides during the forecast period, and create an absolute dollar opportunity of around US$ 34.5 Mn by 2031. 

How Has Demand for Phytoceramides been Shaping across Established & Evolving Markets?

Germany: Germany’s prestige beauty industry generated over US$ 3.1 Bn in sales in 2020 amidst the lockdown, and experienced the least decline among all European countries. This was driven by a shorter lockdown period and the industry’s online sales channel maturity, which has boosted the country’s online sales of phytoceramides.

Besides, Germany liquid phytoceramides demand has been escalating owing to usage in dietary supplements, which is poised to rise at a CAGR of 5.1% during 2021-31. 

France: France dominates the beauty industry among the European countries and holds 23% of the global market. Quality products, continual innovation, and a compelling framework founded on French culture and heritage are the foundations of this superiority.

As a result of new consumer trends and rapidly increasing competitors, France phytoceramide-based cream manufacturers are poised to keep sales rising at a CAGR of 4.8% during 2021-31. 

Japan: As of 2020, Japan has the highest number of old aged people, with over 28% of its entire population being over 65. This geriatric population is the primary customer base of anti-aging cosmetic manufacturers in East Asia.

This makes Japan one of the key regions for phytoceramide manufacturers, which has been found beneficial in offering anti-aging benefits and useful in certain skin-related therapy being performed by dermatologists. Owing to this, the Japan phytoceramides market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 7% during the forecast period.

Argentina: As of 2020, over 15% of the people residing in the country are over 60. This presents a budding opportunity for cosmetic manufacturers to tap into the ageing population with newer anti-aging emulsions and formulations. This has led to an increase in overall Argentina phytoceramides emulsion sales, which caters to the growing need for skincare cosmetic products in the country.

Brazil: Brazil is anticipated to remain the prime contributors to the growth of Latin American nutraceuticals demand. Additionally, the beauty industry, which is one of the prime consumers of phytoceramides, contributes around 2% to the country’s GDP.

Which Grade of Phytoceramide is Estimated to Have Highest Growth Potential?

By 2030, the global old age population is anticipated to cross the children (0-9 years) population, as per a report published by the United Nations. Owing to this, demand for cosmetic products providing anti-aging benefits is poised to increase at an alarming rate.

Anti-aging product sales have soared in recent years as a result of increasing awareness of skin ageing. This has led to an increase in applications of phytoceramides in cosmetics, as they are commonly employed in the manufacture of anti-aging treatments due to their capacity to rebuild the skin barrier system and preserve skin moisture content.

In addition to this, manufacturers have been incorporating phytoceramides for hair care products as they have found them to have a beneficial effect on the thickness and strength of hair and making it less prone to breakage.

Besides, there has been a growing demand of phytoceramides for skin therapy application, and various researches are going on to capitalise on the benefits offered by phytoceramides in recent years.

Additionally, the trend of manufacturing custom hair care and skincare products that incorporate phytoceramides for better skin & hair, and are suited to specific consumer requirements, has led to an increase in the overall growth of the plant-based ceramide market in recent years. Such products often integrate newer ingredients such as phytoceramides, and this has resulted in improving the overall sales of phytoceramides in the cosmetic industry.

Owing to the aforementioned factors, along with the adoption of modern trade channels for selling cosmetics products, demand for cosmetic grade phytoceramides is poised to reach US$ 398.3 Mn by 2031, rising at a CAGR of 5.3%.

How Have Powder & Liquid Ceramides Performed Over the Years?

Powder or solid phytoceramides has remained the preferred choice among cosmetic manufacturers, owing to the widespread availability and relatively easier manufacturing and extraction process.

However, increasing demand of phytoceramides emulsion and formulations from the geriatric population, suited to custom requirements, has led manufacturers to include constituents such as phytoceramide emulsion that offer additional benefits. This has, in turn, led to a rise in the demand for phytoceramides in the cosmetics industry.

Additionally, demand for liquid phytoceramides is on the rise, as they find usage in soft gels, which are increasingly being adopted by people who prefer the oral route of taking phytoceramides in the form of dietary supplements.

Besides, these plant-based ceramides are relatively new and manufacturers are yet to capitalise on the entire growth potential of these liquid and powder phytoceramides in the cosmetics as well as nutraceutical industry.

Owing to this, the global phytoceramides market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 5.3% and create an absolute dollar opportunity of US$ 159.8 Mn during 2021-31.

How Has COVID-19 impacted Phytoceramide Demand?

The COVID-19 pandemic's rapid spread affected the demand for phytoceramides from skincare and hair care product manufacturers. As a result of lockdowns and travel restrictions, cosmetics and personal care goods were sold less in the traditional offline marketplace. This made manufacturers keep themselves away from manufacturing custom cosmetics products, such as those which incorporate phytoceramides for skin care benefits.

As consumers were only venturing out for essentials, with social interactions being limited, phytoceramide supplements and skin care product demand plummeted. This led to a substantial fall in the demand for phytoceramides from manufacturers of cosmetic products & dietary supplements.

Prominent developed countries are striving towards fully vaccinating their citizens, and are planning to gradually lift-off mask requirements in multiple localities. Besides, there have been reports of new hope for the revival of cosmetics sales by the end of Q2 2022, and in turn, will aid increasing the demand for phytoceramide in the long run.
